Kizer Ki4496 – Desert Dog – S35VN Blade – Carbon Fiber Handle

MICHAEL VAGNINO

From the ABS (American Bladesmith Society) Master Bladesmith Michael Vagnino.
A hand filling handle with a wide blade, the Desert Dog was born in response to requests from the warriors of the US armed forces.

Michael originally made this knife as part of the Blades for Warriors venture, where a number of custom knife makers got together and donated their knives to US troops who needed a quality knife but could never afford a custom knife.  

Always searching, this hound craves the next adventure.

Flipper, ball bearing assisted action. Liner lock.

Due to the double sided carbon fiber scales this knife is a liner lock and it has stainless steel liners.
